I've had my hackintosh up and running for a couple of days now - built using the Lifehacker Guide (components in my signature). Wanted to see if I could get Parallels 5 to run on my machine so downloaded the free trial. Was able to create a Win 7 virtual machine easily but was unable to get network access (and by default no internet access). Error message in Win 7 VM says, "Windows could not find a driver for your network adapter."

Some folks - including myself - have onboard LAN working while others needed to use a PCI card. I only played around for about an hour this evening but thought I'd check here to see if anyone has had a similar issue or ideas.

(FYI - Amazon has Parallels 5 on sale for $40 after rebate so figured I'd buy if I could get it to work.)
